I wish there were dead giveaways. It would be helpful to know if I’m talking to a teen or an adult cuz my attitude in delivering how wrong they were would definitely change. Certainly i can recall some truly boneheaded beliefs i have discarded through the decades so im more forgiving if i know they’re young.
On the other hand if they’re pretending to be an adult they ostensibly want to have their opinions considered on equal terms, as peers; basically to not be preached to. If that’s their goal then isnt it kinda the point to treat their ideas as if they were offered by one? If we think of it like that, maybe it’s not super important to know someone’s age. It’s definitely helpful of course to know who youre dealing with but the downside of anonymity is also its upside. ideas are ideas no matter how old the brain is what thinks em.
Hmm. I read your thing, but I’m not sure how to respond. On one hand, you make a good point. On the other hand, you seem like youre looking for a fight. Why? Why defend someone who, if they had spoken half as eloquently as you, would not have to have their comment moderated? I just don’t get the whole point of your comment, no offense, and certainly not your anger. Who/what is it you are actually mad at here?
Well he did have this to say about it so he certainly supports the decision:
Today’s ruling by the U.S. Supreme Court provides state and local officials the definitive authority to implement and enforce policies to clear unsafe encampments from our streets. This decision removes the legal ambiguities that have tied the hands of local officials for years and limited their ability to deliver on common-sense measures to protect the safety and well-being of our communities.
“California remains committed to respecting the dignity and fundamental human needs of all people and the state will continue to work with compassion to provide individuals experiencing homelessness with the resources they need to better their lives.”
Iirc the og one wasthe dog actually saying he’s fine, even as his face melted away. Can’t remember what the original joke was but i recall this comic (Gunshow) gets pretty dark as a rule. It wasn’t until after it became a meme he updated it with the dog freaking the fuck out. Again this is just my old memory talking, i haven’t read Gunshow in a long time so feel free to correct me
